The joint Korean team won the Archery gold. In singles, will it mean both North and South Korea will send their archers?

India is at the Hockey World Series Finals: Competition is: Male: India, Japan, S. Africa, Mexico, Poland, Russia, USA - 2 qualifiers Female: India, Japan, Poland, Chile, Fiji, Mexico, Russia, Uruguay - 2 qualifiers Then you play a two-way game against a lower ranked team to qualify. Should be easy.

Hockey qualification: http://www.fih.ch/media/8997773/180406-ioc-approved-qualification-system.pdf

It would be difficult for the teams to qualify. The singles (6) and doubles (3 teams) qualification will be from the Continental championships. Difficult again!

Table tennis qualification: https://cdn.dosb.de/user_upload/Olympische_Spiele/Tokio_2020/internationale_Qualifikationskriterien/ITTF_-_Table_Tennis_20180522.pdf

Qualifying in the singles should be easy. the issue is in Doubles but hope at least one pair qualifies but they are not expected to win anything.

Badminton qualification: https://cdn.dosb.de/user_upload/Olympische_Spiele/Tokio_2020/internationale_Qualifikationskriterien/BWF_-_Badminton_20180315.pdf

Given the form of the wrestlers, there should be at least 10+ in the games

When are the Archery and Shooting qualifiers happening. These are probably fist off the marks for Tokyo. Next are boxing and wrestling.

India defeat Thailand 4-1...Next up is UAE and then Bahrain. Can India reach the knock-outs??
